ONE YEAR OLD!!! =)

Thank you for the cards, Grandma & Granddad Sharkey and Mimi & PopPop! (Madeleine REALLY loved 'reading' them!)



Top-Chef Daddy working on the Birthday Cake & Cupcakes!

Oh, No! A little cake mishap!

But it was delicious all the same!

Madeleine has added (& is working on adding) many new tricks to her arsenal. Among them are:

* Pulls up to Standing position (perfected in Mexico)

* Crawling from room to room (longer distances)

* Clapping

*'Reading' her books!!! Finally, Madeleine enjoys reading, both with us and by herself (she'll look at her books, and turn the pages ~ so cute!)


* Sticking out her tongue (Thank you, Sharkey)

* Trying to engage people by smiling at them


* Beginning to (??? strum lips)

* Beginning to wave (Hello/Good-bye)

*"Joking" ~ she'll offer a piece of food, then eat it herself!

** To Sharkey's pleasure, she's starting to make more sounds, now 'Da-Da' is her newest. Here's the best video i could get of it. **DISCLAIMER: LONG VIDEO! GRANDPARENT'S EYES ONLY!!!** Miss Maddie wrestles the camera away from me during the middle of it ~ so strong!

Happy Birthday, Madeleine (AKA 'Ole Fussy Face!), we love you!!!
